Wonderful hike, especially the first third. We met someone playing a recorder as we hiked and it echoed up and down the canyon like magic! The walls of the canyon had colors and textures that were like nothing I'd ever seen before. Lovely, easy hike!

This is an easy hike with some really cool things to look at and photograph. Polished marble walls in some places give one a feel of a "slot canyon" although this is a short area overall.

Like all canyons, it is just fun to get in there and explore. This canyon is best to see when the sun is high. However, anytime is great because the walls are so beautiful.

Take water and enjoy
